Chapter 503

We decided on a test of skill

“I just saw the orcs being defeated, so it should be fine! Uhh…and because I have this too! …Probably.”

Liza had watched us fighting from far away, and based on that, she thought she was fine.

Also, there was the knife I had bought for her in Ractos…

It looked big in her hands as she raised it and laughed.

However, in spite of this will, I did not want to put her in any danger.

…But how could I persuade her of this?

She was so enthusiastic, and so I didn’t want to say no without a good reason…

“…While you should probably refuse…it’s also true that Liza was able to run with Leo and Sherry without looking very tired… Even a well-trained human would not have been able to do that… However…”

“…Mr. Ekenhart?”

“Wuff?”

As I was trying to figure out a way of keeping Liza out of harm’s way, Mr. Ekenhart suddenly started muttering.

It seemed like he wasn’t sure what to do either…but I had a bad feeling about it.

He was Ms. Claire and Tilura’s father, and was the reason that the two were brimming with curiosity…

While I wouldn’t call him reckless, he was always trying to test things that he found interesting…

And so he might want to see Liza take on an orc…

“…Mr. Takumi?”

“Yes…”

“It’s about Liza. Perhaps allowing her to…fight orcs would be good as an experience?”

“…Perhaps. It was for Tilura. However, that was after she went through a lot of training, so she knew how to handle a weapon…”

“I understand that. And so, why not test it?”

“Test it?”

“Yes. And then we can decide if she should fight against orcs. If we think she is not ready, then we will forbid her from doing it. However, if she is…”

“Then you will let her fight them?”

“Exactly.”

Apparently, Mr. Ekenhart was thinking about letting Liza fight the orcs.

To gain experience… Indeed, it would not be a bad thing to experience fighting monsters.

As this was a world that was filled with monsters, you never knew what might happen.

Just like when Range village was attacked by orcs.

However, I didn’t think that it had to be now.

Perhaps when Liza had grown a little more… At least when she was as old as Tilura. But preferably older.

That way, she would be able to train.

Leo seemed like she also wanted to say something, but held it back as I petted her.

“Uhh… So, if I do something, I can fight an orc? …I don’t know what it is, but I’ll do my best! I’ll show you, mama and papa!”

“Liza, are you sure?”

“Yes, sister Tilura. You and Sherry did it. And I’ve seen mama and papa fight, so now it’s my turn!”

“Liza…”

“Wuff…”

“It seems like she is eager. While I am mostly against it, I don’t want to discourage her either… Well, don’t worry. Testing may sound simple, but I mean to be harsh when making the decision. After all, I do not want her to get hurt. …Though, I also have high expectations.”

While Liza did not seem to fully understand what Mr. Ekenhart was saying, she was still eager to do it.

I didn’t know what he was going to make her do, but he said she would be safe, and harsh when judging… And I suppose he could use that to make her give up on fighting the orcs.

However, it also sounded like he hoped to see her fight…

“So, father? What is the meaning of this?”

“Uh, Claire…well. Liza…?”

We had left the bonfire in order to put Mr. Ekenhart’s plan into action.

But then Ms. Claire noticed that the meeting had ended, and she, along with Ms. Anne and the guards walked towards us.

She had been smiling at first, but then she saw that Liza was holding her knife with a serious expression, and immediately assumed that her father had thought of something reckless again.

Leo, Tilura, Sherry and I were standing behind Liza and watching nervously.

As Mr. Ekenhart tried to explain to Ms. Claire, I turned my eyes towards Liza, who had taken the knife out of its sheath…
